The Thompson Christmas Bucket List: Sing Christmas Carols

Music makes the holiday and so easily gets us in the holiday spirit. So when the kids have a chance to sing Christmas carols in any way, shape or form, we are all about it! Adelaide was part of the SMM K/1 musical: A Very Berry Christmas. It was absolutely adorable and she even was featured with speaking part. She practiced daily and totally was a star on stage!

This year, Brighton joined the cast of SMM Church's Christmas Play. He was cast as a shark with the other animals. Aspen returned as a lion while Adelaide graduated to a Shepherd. They all 3 practiced their songs morning, noon, and night. They had a blast as always!

Brighton's first time with a school performance came during his Harvey Browne musical debut. He was as cute as a button and I loved seeing him shine! 






We will miss the Christmas carols once the season is over but boy have we soaked them all up this year :)

Pancakes & Pajamas: Spreading Christmas Cheer

Truly what is cuter and more festive than littles in their holiday pajamas spreading Christmas REALLY loud for all to hear?! We hosted a Pancakes & Pajamas party over the weekend and it was lots of fun for all. From snowball fights to candy cane toss to decorating each other as Christmas teees to making ornaments to eating ALL the sugary treats to being greeted by the infamous Elf on the Shelf rising his peppermint sleigh, it was the best way to welcome winter break with those we adore. Oh and we sprinkled lots and lots and lots of glitter!
